Great location but…
This property listed on vrbo said it had a living room. This converted boat house had two bedrooms and a full bath. It was decorated decades ago with bed linens to match. Would not recommend to anyone.

Best Location
The property is ideally located on Lake McDonald. It is a wonderful and peaceful place. Great location on the lake! It is an amazing property! We loved the cabin. It is as described in the listing. We hope we can go back one day. We were very sad to leave. . Christie was awesome to work with! Check-in was very easy and the directions to the cabin was perfect.
